FLAC 1.1.3 has been released. Almost 2 years in the making, FLAC 1.1.3 is a major release with improved compression, improved cover art and multichannel support, better recovery for corrupted files, many new features and options in the command-line tools, and several bug fixes. For developers, the decoder and encoder APIs have also been simplified and there is a new porting guide. See the changelog entry for complete details.

From the changelog: "Much better recovery for corrupted files"Is this a decoder improvement, or a change to the file stream which requires the file to be encoded with 1.1.3? The speed & compression improvements are good, but not "reencode my flacs" worthy. Error correction would be though.
